Description Sitting at the crossroads of installation art, puppetry, video and performance, The Tent allows an intimate group of people to step inside the story of an unlikely male friendship. Brett, a modern day bush philosopher, takes city kid Michael under his wing and they live together in his tent, until their friendship falters over what to do with a lost cow. This is a unique theatrical experience; a strange journey to the muddy crossroads of self-sufficiency and prolonged adolescence. The Tent has been hand built by the artists out of scrap metal and old, oil-stained truck canvas.
